Help Cheri qualify for Rio

Currently, I'm raising funds for upcoming events including the 2016 US Paralympic National Championship in Charlotte, North Carolina. This event wil allow me the opportunity to qualify for Team USA and compete at the Paralympic Games in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.

In previous years I competed for Team USA at the Paralympic Games in 1996 Atlanta and 2000 in Australia becoming an eight time medalist and a former world recorder holder in the 100m, 200m, and 400m. After the 2000 Paralympic Games I retired and since married in 2001 and have two beautiful daughters Reese who is 12 and Malayna who is 9. 

In 2013 I came out of retirement to begin training to achieve my goal of competing for Team USA at the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio. Since, I have had the opportunity to compete at the World Games in Lyon, France winning a Silver Medal (200m) and a Bronze Medal (400m), ParaPan American in Toronto winning a Silver Medal (400m) and a Bronze Medal (800m)
and the World Championship in Doha, Qatar winning a Silver Medal (200m).

Thank you for your support to achieve my ultimate goal of the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio De Janeiro.
